WITNESSES i ao of the doors freeffrom all metal projections,

f' Toall whom it mag/.condemn f- Hangers, of which the followingis a specie, l c y Y in a cylindrical hoie l5 iii the..r corner or the -s'fr-Afriiifsf f'en'onengm. voreir, or sanV FRANcIsco, -CALIFORNIA noon-HANGER.

Be it known that I, (,noncr. F. Vorerrr, a citizen of the United States, residing, at San Francisco, in the vcounty of San li'anv cisco and State' ofV California, have invented new and useful lmprovements/in@Door-- fication. Y v

The present invention relaties toimprove-I ,A lo'ments:inndoorhangers suspended from wheel or wheels on an over-head track,.and having lower portions adapted to be fastened to the upper portion of the door, one hanger ateach of the upper corners of the door.

' l The object of the inventionis toprovideA afhanger which can be'y installedl with but o littleA labor; which permits of a wide range of adjustment; which has few partsor joints i liable kto rattle; and which leavesthe tops such as screw heads,jmetal plates and the like, that mightinterfere with its .proper movement.

In the accompanying drawing,Figure 1 is aside elevation, certain parts being shown in vertical section, of an upper right-hand forms of the hanger detached from the door.

Referring to the drawing, 1 indicates a track, preferably made of wood nailed or screwed directly against the framework of lthe ybuilding above .the door. Upon said track is mounted a wheel 2, centrally supportingl a shaft 8 formed integral with, and from which depends,"an uppery hanger member 4 having a lower transverse or horizontally extending portion 5, through which extends a round hole or bearing 6, in the plane of the wheel 2. ,In said hole 6 is rotatably supported a round stem 7, extending from a lower hanger member 8, having a shoulder 9 Vabutting against an endof the transverse portion 5, said stem 7 Lbeing secured in said hole 6 by a cotter pin 10 passed through a f transverse hole 1l therein. Said lowermem- Specirvzaton of Lettrs'atent. ,Y .Animation flied september so, .1914. serial No. 864,257. y

ber-is goose-necked in form and has a narrow portion l2. extending ,through the narrowslot 1&5 betweeiithe lieau-jaiiios la. V15elow Said narrow portion l2 Lne lower meinber 1s or a general kcylindrical form and extendsjin a direction making yan angle of aboutdu "viththey vertical, and is inserted hanger in the door. lne lower hanger member 1sy secured in place in the door by means offa. screw 17 passing through a noie in a plate 18 bent to forni two mediate parts 19, 21, at fright angles to each other and two terminal parts z2, 23,. making with the adjacent mediate parts angles of 1350. rlthe plate is secured to the door by means of a screw 24 passing through a hole in the lower terminal part 23 andy screwed into the door, while the lower mediate part 21, of

a general cylindrical form, rests against the side of'the hole. rlhe screw passes through a hole in the upper mediate part 19 and its .head 20 abuts against said upper mediate part. Said screw 17 is screwed through a threaded hole in the lower eind of the lower part of said lower hanger member in the hole 15 1s preferably flattened, and reduced in `hanger member. The central portion of the thickness, as shown at 25, to save material,

and said flattened portion is centrally slotted longitudinally, as shown at 26, to facilitate the working ofthe screw.

It Vis preferable that the lower hanger member should be capable o1' a slight rotary .motion relative to the upper member, but in the form of the'invention shown'in Fig. 5

the hanger is made all in one piece 27, its upper portion extending obliquely instead of vertically.

The form of the invention shown in Fig. 6 differs from that in Fig. 1 in that two wheelsl instead of one are employed for each hanger.

I claim 1. The combination with a door having a hole extending obliquely through an upper corner thereof from one side edge to its up- `per edge, a hanger having a lower portion the door and having Vav portion fitting inthe lower end of Sid hoi,"`'nd it "sdrviex'tje'nfi-N Aing through said portion of the plate and, hziving a head housed therein, the shanlof I the screw threadedly engaging fthefiowerend ofthe hanger.
